Chapter 199: Who Wants Me Dead

​Scarlett’s POV

​We argued back and forth, their stubborn Alpha instincts clashing directly against my anger. They refused to budge, and no matter what I said, they completely shut down the idea of leaving me behind in Shanghai.

​As the argument kept going, a cold, hard realization began to settle in my mind.

​They were right about one thing—the danger was real. The person who wanted me dead wasn’t going to stop. They had been tracking me for three fucking years, and the triplets had just made matters a thousand times worse by brutally killing these assassins in a fit of protective rage.

The triplets’ parents were still at the Full Moon Pack, and they were the ones who hated the idea of this bond more than anyone. If the answers were anywhere, they were back home. I had to get to the bottom of it. Going back wasn’t a bad idea if it meant I could finally uncover the truth and end this nightmare once and for all.
